If the :code:`contacts` option is used, this fix will store the contact
information for each atom that interacts with the wall as per-atom array with 8
columns. The values of these columns are listed in the following table:
If the :code:`contacts` option is used, this fix generates a per-atom vector
with 8 columns as output, containing the contact information for owned
particles (nlocal on each processor). All columns in this per-atom vector will
be zero if no contact has occured.  The values of these columns are listed in
the following table:
